If Sixers’ General Manager was interested in pursuing Doug Collins as the team’s next coach, the former 76er-turned-coach-turned-analyst would take the call, according to his agent.

According to the Philadelphia Daily News, Collins’ agent John Langel told them that there had absolutely been no contact between the Sixers and his client, that while Collins has always left the door open to coaching again he would not pursue a job with a team that already has a coach in place, but if the Sixers removed Tony DiLeo as head coach, he would be interested.

“Certainly last year, he had an interest [in coaching],” Langel said. “He said if the right situation ever arose, he would be intrigued, but it would have to be the right situation, the right group of players. But he does not seek positions, particularly when someone is already in that position with a team; he has a good relationship with Tony DiLeo and has great respect for him and the job he has done.

“At this point, Doug is totally invested in his broadcasting career, but has, as he has done in the past, left the door open.”

Stefansky has yet to make a decision on the future of the team’s head coaching position, and is expected to sit down with DiLeo in the coming weeks.

In eight seasons as a coach with the Chicago Bulls, Detroit Pistons, and Washington Wizards, Collins has a record of 332-287.
